Celebrate Indigenous Recognition Round with us!

The Indigenous Recognition Match is a tradition the club has honoured since its inception, with AAMI Park built on the land of the Wurundjeri tribe.

On Sunday, we will be hosting a number of activities in the lead-up to kick-off to celebrate Indigenous Culture in Australia, including:

Ron Murray, a highly-respected Victorian Indigenous educator, storyteller and musician, will conduct a didgeridoo performance, prior to kick off and at City Square.

Aunty Joy Murphy Wandin, an indigenous Australian and Senior Wurundjeri elder of the Kulan alliance, will deliver her traditional ‘Welcome to Country’ with W-League stars Lydia Williams and Kyah Simon prior to kick-off of the A-League match.

Free Indigenous themed face painting at City Square.

Gelato Messina is coming to City Square!

Who doesn’t love ice cream, let alone the best gelato in Australia! Our friends at Gelato Messina will be at City Square for you to enjoy a wide variety of their famous ice cream.

The Stomping Ground Brewery pop-up bar is also back and there’s nothing better for a cool down than a locally-brewed ale from one of Melbourne’s finest breweries! Find the right drop for you and chill out at Stomping Ground’s pop-up bar pre-match.

Don’t forget we’ll have our usual live music, free clinics and a wide variety of food trucks at City Square and on the Olympic Boulevard precinct in what will be a brilliant way to kick-start Sunday’s double header!
